105 Purdons Bay Road, Lanark Highlands

Set on 5.65 rolling acres overlooking Dalhousie Lake, this home is the kind of country property people dream about finding. Rich with history, beauty, and soul, this remarkable estate preserves the integrity and character of the original 1885 home, thoughtfully expanded in 1988 with a stunning addition featuring a spacious living room, loft bedroom, mudroom, and powder room. The arrival is unforgettable. Pulling into the herringbone brick driveway, you're greeted by the most magnificent oak tree - an absolutely jaw-dropping welcome to the landscape, with an unmistakable sense of permanence and grace. The land slopes gently toward an ever-so-charming heritage barn - an inspiring space for craftsmen, artists, collectors, or anyone who appreciates timeless design and authenticity. Mature hardwood forest, trails, rolling lawns, apple trees, and two separate driveways create a setting that feels private, peaceful, and entirely magical. Inside, pine and terra cotta floors, sunlit living spaces, and carefully preserved details create warmth and authenticity throughout. The bright country eat-in kitchen invites slow mornings and long conversations, while the formal dining room feels made for holiday gatherings and candlelit dinners.The 23' x 8' screened porch may become your favourite space of all - the perfect place for morning coffee, summer storms, and evenings filled with laughter overlooking the landscape. Outside, the massive barn/garage and additional shed offer endless flexibility for hobbies, workshops, entertaining, or creative pursuits. The property itself feels almost cinematic - equally suited for peaceful everyday living or unforgettable gatherings. You could easily imagine hosting a wedding beneath the trees with music drifting through the hills at sunset. With a clean basement, thoughtful design, and exceptional care throughout, this is more than a home - it's a once-in-a-generation country retreat overlooking the lake.
